Written for
beginning string
students, Larry Clark's
Contemplation?contains
basic compositional
techniques that students
will be able to identify
and learn from. It begins
with a rich, melodic
opening which highlights
students' musicianship.
This is then contrasted
by the frolicking,
uptempo section, which is
a variation on the
original musical
material.
Contemplation:
the action to look
thoughtfully at something
for a long
time.
When composing
music that will be used
with younger students, I
want to stimulate in them
thoughtfulness. In this
particular piece I want
the students to be be
able to stretch their
musicianship beyond their
experience on their
instruments to play in a
contemplative
manner. To me this is
the essence of music:
playing in an emotional
and thoughtful way. It is
something that cannot be
stressed enough, even in
students that have just
begun to play. As soon as
possible they should be
asked to put themselves
into the music and make
it more than the notes
and rhythms on the
page.
This piece is my
attempt to provide very
young students who are
just beginning their
musical journey with
something they can reach
technically, but have to
stretch for
musically. The notes and
rhythms are limited, but
students should strive
for beauty of tone, good
phrasing and emotional
involvement.
After a short
introduction, the
heartfelt main theme
begins at a lyrical and
slow tempo. This is
developed with the
addition of a secondary
theme featuring the lower
voices, before the piece
leads to an Allegro
section that is based on
the same musical material
with a difference in
tempo and a variation in
rhythm patterns. The piece can
serve to show students
that the same basic music
can have an entirely
different emotional
connection with
difference in tempo,
rhythm and style, with
the first section of the
piece being sentimental
and the faster section
being more joyous in
nature. As with all of
my pieces for younger
students, it is
completely acceptable to
adjust the tempo to fit
the educational needs of
your students.
It has been my
pleasure to have the
opportunity to write this
piece. I hope you and
your students enjoy it
and find it useful for
your program.
